I haven't fixed the case of real(kind=16) yet, because it's more
complicated there (see, once again, Dominique's testing in the PR).
It seemed that there is no reason to wait for the real(kind=16)
issue to be resolved to check in that patch, so I submit it here
for review.
Further analysis revealed that the real(kind=16) format is wide
enough (at least on ppc-darwin); the I/O of long doubles in the
system libc seems completely rotten, though, and I will thus have to
XFAIL the testcase.
PS: if someone is interested in donating sparc-solaris access, that'd
be welcome.
